Well system inspection Water tapped by a private well is often of the highest quality. When buying a home with a private well, your home inspection should include a well system water test.
Prior to the inspection, you should obtain your well’s log or record, which contains information on the history of the well and the ground surrounding it. Contractors must file well logs with their respective states upon completion of all new wells. However, well owners should also own a copy in case the well needs to be serviced at any time.
Your well water inspection will include:
- A test of your water for coliform bacteria and nitrates, iron, manganese, water hardness, sulfides and anything else of concern in your area that could pose problems with your plumbing, staining, water appearance, and odor.
- A concise, clear, written report explaining results and recommendations for your well that include all laboratory and other test results.
